Chapter 80

The hotel room was equipped with a fax machine, a computer, and a printer.

We all sat together and dealt with the influx of paperwork.

Hyun-joo noona, who led the negotiation, meticulously looked at all the documents, and Ellie checked whether there were any legal problems.

As the final decision maker, I read the submitted documents after reviewing and then approved.

But that doesn’t mean we do everything. For the transfer of Carlos’ headquarters, it was decided to receive consulting from the Golden Gate headquarters, and for negotiations with the FCA group, a Golden Gate M&A expert flew to Italy and contacted the working team.

All.

And K Company was mobilized for small tasks that could be entrusted to others.



I talked to Sangyeop sunbaenim on the phone after a long time.

Senior Sangyeop said gladly.

[I’m hearing your news through Ronald’s SNS.]

“·················ogue.”

Unlike Diane, Ronald actively used social media for elections. They mention OTK Company so much that when you type Ronald in the search bar, OTK Company automatically appears as a related search term.

Sell ​​us a little bit.

Well, it would be a welcome thing to do if you were elected anyway.

“How about that one?”

[Not long ago, I finished moving. When will you come back to Korea?]

“As soon as it’s finished, we’ll all go in together.”

[Come back soon. I’m bored because I’m in Korea alone.]

“I see. I’ll go and tell you the details.”

Fortunately, we can afford it to a certain extent, but Hyeon-joo noona’s two bodies were not enough.

I didn’t have time to sleep, so I took a nap every 15 minutes and stuck to work.

Taek-gyu, who had not seen it, said.

“It’s not even a company, so wear comfortable clothes.”

Unlike us, who wore sweatpants or jeans, Hyunjoo noona wore a high-waisted skirt and a white blouse as usual. Her hair was also neatly tied and secured with pins.

She worked with her back upright without disturbing her posture.

“I can’t relax.”

It’s really self-management. I think she should watch and learn, but it seems like she can’t do it.

“Last check.”

“Yes.”

As I checked each of her clauses in the contract that Hyun-joo’s older sister gave her, her cell phone placed on her table vibrated.

Jiying!

An unknown number was floating on the screen.

Maybe it’s not Diane’s camp?

When I hesitated without accepting, Eli said. “Why not?”

Ellie looked at me with suspicious eyes.

“Isn’t that the glass or the girl doing something?”

“Is it possible?”

Glass, glass, glass, or something, what the hell is a girl doing?

Looking at the number, I think it was from the US.

Once I got the call

“Hello.”

[Long time no see, Mr. Kang. This is James.]

The caller was none other than Golden Gate CEO James C. Goldman.

what happened to me?

“Yes. Good morning.”

[The American political world is noisy because of OTK Company. I heard that Diane’s offer was rejected.]

Rumors are also fast.

I asked him.

“Who do you think will be president?”

[If you think rationally, it’s Diane, but people don’t always act rationally.]

Diane is rational and calm. Explain their policies based on clear reasons and persuade others.

On the other hand, Ronald is emotional and aggressive. Rather than a proper reason, he simply raises his voice and makes his argument.

After all, will there be articles pointing out errors in Ronald’s speech right after he speaks?

But for those who think they are being harmed, an emotional cry is more likely to work than a logical persuasion.

Even if there are some minor errors, what’s the problem?

[If OTK Company hadn’t been on Ronald’s camp, I would have been sure Diane would win too. But now I don’t know what will happen.]

“This has been a huge help.”

Had it not been for James, he would have had a hard time contacting Ronald.

[I would like to ask you one thing.]

“What is your request?”

[I want to entrust Henry to Mr. Kang. I hope the OTK Company accepts it.]

“Yes?”

I was taken aback by the unexpected job request.

“You won’t learn anything from me.”

Investors don’t need licenses like lawyers or doctors. Anyone with money can enter the financial market.

For this reason, there are elites who have systematically received financial investment education for a long period of time, while there are others who happened to invest.

I am of course the latter.

If investment had a royal road and an apostle, I would completely belong to the apostle. Because I haven’t graduated from school, let alone an MBA.

James laughed when he heard me.

[Learning a lot doesn’t make you smart. Whether it’s life or investment, things don’t go according to textbooks.]

As you can see from Hyeon-joo’s older sister, Golden Gate is overflowing with talented people from all over the world.

Nevertheless, there must be a good reason to ask me instead of Golden Gate, right?

“Does Henry know?”

[I want it too. Opportunities to work with legendary investors are rare.]

Having said this, there is no point in rejecting it. I nodded.

“Okay.”

Henry is older than me, and his financial knowledge will be far ahead of me.

I don’t think I’ll be resentful for ruining my grandson later, right?

[More than that, too much has been revealed about Mr. Kang. It would be better to prepare slowly.]

After coming to the United States, he wandered around revealing his identity. I don’t know where the story came from, but it was also known through the media that the CEO of OTK Company was an Asian in his 20s.

In general, it was an atmosphere that was regarded as ‘Cardara communication’. That’s because it’s hard to believe that a young man in his 20s could have done such a big job.

In any case, it is only a matter of time before the identity is revealed.

After finishing the call and putting down his cell phone, Taek-gyu asked.

“Who is it?”

I just talked about the content of the previous call and asked Hyunjoo noona for her opinion.

“Is it okay if I take Henry?”

The sister thought for a moment and then said.

“It’s not a bad offer. If James C. Goldman was foreshadowed as the successor, he would be able to do enough for one person.”

Taehyung nodded his head.

“right. We also have to have staff. The size of the company is over 50 trillion won, does it make sense to run it with three shareholders?”

“·················ogue.”

That’s right.

Will Henry finally have the first employee?

Hyun-joo noona said she was tired, so she took off her glasses and rubbed the corners of her eyes.

“Take it at once.”

“Yes.”

Henry was staying with his bodyguards in the next room.

I went there and said

“I just heard about it.”

Henry laughed.

“It is an honor to work with you.”

we moved together When Henry came in, Hyun-joo’s sister got up and held out his hand.

“Welcome to OTK Company.”

Henry blushed and grabbed his hand.

“Thank you. I wish you all the best.”

Before the greeting was even finished, Hyun-joo’s sister held a mountain of documents in his arms.

“We get to work right away.”

“Oh, I see.”

Henry hurriedly took off his coat and sat down. My upper body is strong because I work hard on a regular basis.

Taek-gyu spoke to me in a low voice.

“I’m glad we’re not under you.”

I nodded my head as it was so relatable.

“Yeah.”

The Brexit incident made K Company the most famous financial company in Korea.

Until now, the Korean financial market has been nothing more than a playground for foreigners. While foreign IBs and PFEs made astronomical amounts of money from real estate, stocks, bonds, and derivatives, Korean financial companies did not earn much in foreign countries.

However, a company that was founded less than two years ago swept the global derivatives market and swept close to 5 trillion won.

The press made a special report on the fact, and the CEO, Park Sang-yeop, became a celebrity. Even the Korean Warren Boat was praised.

K Company, which was only a small and medium-sized company at the time of venture capital, has grown to a level comparable to that of a large IB.

Even among chaebols, except for the five largest groups, it is rare to find a company with that level of cash.

How the money would be spent was of great interest. Will you go through venture capital or acquisitions as before, or will you invest in the financial market again?

In fact, there were many questions about the identity of the K Company.

There is no question that Park Sang-yeop’s investment skills are great. However, the source of the initial investment was unclear.

98% of the corporation is owned by a foreign company, but it is not known which company it is. Who the hell would finance it?

Not only the media, but also the business and political circles showed interest in K Company. The financial world seemed very nervous about the emergence of a new financial conglomerate.

Enemy or ally?

Competitor or partner?

The chaebols also showed boundaries. What was more problematic were startups owned by K Company.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Startups that have entered new industries have grown day by day with the support of K Company.

I don’t know right away, but it was clear that they would bring a crack in the domestic industry dominated by chaebols in the future.

No one wants a new competitor to emerge. Before it got bigger, I had to step on it or get rid of it. However, it is not easy because K Company, which has the financial power, is holding out behind the scenes.

The chaebols all at once put pressure on the politicians to investigate and regulate K Company. Then, not long after, the Blue House moved.

The current president, Park Si-hyeong, was elected with strong support from the business community, and it is the same now that he is in power. So they gladly gave them what they wanted.



The president gave instructions to Yoon Se-won, the head of the National Intelligence Service.

“Learn about a place called K Company.”

The National Intelligence Service is originally an agency that collects and investigates information to protect national security. Due to the nature of the armistice state in which the two Koreas face each other, its importance cannot be overstated.

But the reality was a little different.

Since the previous administration, the president’s aides have sat in the position of the head of the National Intelligence Service and assumed the role of loyal dog of the government.

The NIS secretly started an investigation into K Company. Park Sang-yeop, the CEO, as well as all employees, were subject to surveillance.

It was an illegal inspection rather than an investigation, but no one thought it strange.

Although the issue of illegal inspection has been raised several times so far, all of them have been dismissed or not even prosecuted by the prosecution.

Everything is for the country, where is the law? Everything was acceptable as long as the source of the funds seemed to have something to do with North Korea.

Shortly after the investigation began, several facts that had not been known until now were revealed.

K Company has been closely related to Golden Gate, an American IB from the time of its establishment, and all financial transactions were conducted only through Golden Gate.

And apart from investing on its own, OTK Company’s work was entrusted to handle it. This meant that K Company was closely related to OTK Company.

“Is it possible that OTK Company provided funds to K Company?”

On the list of employees were the names Oh Taek-gyu and Kang Jin-hoo. However, the two received a salary of billions of dollars and did not even go to work. And Oh Taek-gyu’s older sister is none other than Oh Hyun-joo, the head of Golden Gate’s Korean branch.

She felt like something was grabbing her tail.

“What are they?”

At that point, it was announced that the OTK Company was partnering with Republican nominee Ronald to invest $20 billion in the US auto industry.

All of this happened after Oh Taek-gyu and Kang Jin-hoo left for the United States.

What followed was even more shocking. It is said that the CEO of OTK Company is an Asian in his 20s.

The NIS extracted and confirmed Park Sang-yeop’s call history. He changed his number several times and frequently called Jin-hoo Kang and Hyun-joo Oh.

Calls before and after Brexit, as well as up to recently, were confirmed.

“Keep digging Taek-gyu Oh and Jin-hoo Kang.”

The call history was not enough, so the financial transaction details were also investigated. Here came the decisive evidence. It was confirmed that the OTK Company remittance to Korea last year.

I sent 1.3 billion won to Kang Jin-hoo on two occasions, and 13 billion won to Oh Taek-gyu!

With the money, Oh Taek-gyu lived a luxurious life, such as buying a house in Gangnam and a foreign car. And Kang Jin-hoo lives in that house.

Thanks to the information collected by all kinds of illegal means, Yoon Se-won was able to draw conclusions.

“OTK Company was Oh Taek-gyu Company!”

I also understood why Park Sang-yeop became the CEO of K Company. Kang Jin-hoo introduced his high school senior Park Sang-yeop to Oh Taek-gyu.

Everything fit together like cogs.

“Oh Taek-gyu is the CEO of OTK Company!”
